Soumah Yarra Valley Chardonnay

Soumah Yarra Valley Chardonnay

A nose of toasted hazelnuts, cold butter and a slight struck-match lift over classic varietal stone-fruit notes. The palate is a delicious combo of hazelnuts, basil leaves, creme-fraiche acidity and the Mendoza-clone’s signature clementine tang with a taut, structured finish.

A fabulous value, contemporary Chardonnay made with great care and focus. Really has the balance between Australian joy and Old World
restraint for a really glorious glass of Chardonnay that shows contemporary Yarra Valley at its best.

Chardonnay was picked as early as possible to ensure a fresh line of citrus fruit and crisp natural acidity on the palate. Structure is developed in the wine by predominantly barrel fermenting the juice and allowing it to mature gracefully for eight months before bottling a wine with balanced weight and silky texture.

Food match – Barbecued baby squid on a bed of fragrant fresh fennel, basil, coriander and bay leaves, or for something a little heartier, earthy mushroom and taleggio risotto.

Soumah of the Yarra Valley is a producer of fine wines from the region. A hidden gem located down a country lane, in the dress circle of the cool Warramate foothills of Gruyere. Soumah set out to make wine with the charm of northern Italy but the provenance of the Yarra Valley. Situated an average of 120 metres above sea level, the vineyard is elevated above the valley floor. The ancient sandy-clay loams with broken sandstone shape the small yield and define the detail in these precise, focussed expressions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

Cool nights and slow temperature rise during the day help Soumah retain the unique aroma and flavour profile of every grape variety grown in our vineyard.
